SchoolhouseTeachers.com ~ Schoolhouse Review


A couple of months ago I read about some excellent printable planners at SchoolhouseTeachers.com. But, I was too cheap to pay for a membership. THEN I got the opportunity to review the website for the Schoolhouse Review Crew. Yippee!

And you know what I did first thing? I went and printed off all of the pages that would be useful for me in a planner. There were so many different planner pages from which to choose, and I was able to build a planner that will be perfect for me during this school year.

Once I was done with this task, that only took a few minutes, I started browsing the site. Can I just tell you that I STILL haven't tapped into all this website has to offer.

The first thing I noticed were the full lesson plans offered by some very respectable teachers. For instance, in Geography, Knowledge Quest offers weekly lesson plans with access to printable maps. How about a full-fledged home economics course? Malia Russell of Homemaking911.com offers you daily and weekly lessons. Terrified of teaching your high school student Chemistry? Then let Joey Hajda of friendlychemistry.com do it for you.

And I could go on and on and on about all of the great lessons that are available.

There is still time to do a fun unit study on the Summer Olympics. No need to scour the internet looking for lapbooks or unit studies or literature lists or worksheets or craft ideas ... just go to the SchoolhouseDailies link on the website and let SchoolhouseTeachers.com give you your daily lesson plans. There are LOTS of daily lessons and activities under that tab, including "This Day in History".
 
Additionally you have access to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine, including back issues, and lots of free e-books. And, did I mention the free build-your-own planner pages? Oh yeah, I did.

Here's something I found useful. Under the SchoolhouseLibrary link, there is a tab called Copybooks. I love for my kids to do copywork, but sometimes I don't have, or make, the time to find good subject based work. There are some great copybooks available for download, with topics including money, mothers, fathers, and poems.

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

We found our groove with math this year. I found a curriculum that both of the kids respond well to and seem to enjoy (as much as one can enjoy math). We have spent the whole year learning the ins and outs of multiplication and were just a few lessons away from being ready to move onto the next year-long level on division. And then an opportunity to review the 12 Month Family Plan from  CTC Math became available. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic. I mean, why mess with the methods that have worked so well? When I was chosen to review the product I didn't go into it with the level of enthusiasm that it deserved. We have been using a dvd/workbook curriculum with great success. The 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math is a web based curriculum. As we have not had a lot of luck with those types of programs, I went into this review with a negative attitude. And then my socks were knocked off by how great it is. In fact it is so great that we are going to continue to ...

Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt (Schoolhouse Review)

For the past several weeks we have been reviewing Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Flashcards  from Veritas Press . As we were entering into our more easy-going summer schedule, and had just concluded a two-year Old Testament Bible course, I was happy to try out this product as it appeared to be something that Eli and Brynne could do together, alone, and would act as a review of the Old Testament presented in a different way. And I was right. Each Veritas Press Self-Paced History program includes 160 lessons teaching about 32 events in history. They are designed for children in grades 2-6, and it is recommended that the student be a minimum of 7 years of age at the time of the first lesson. What We Received We received a full one-year subscription, for one child, to the online Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt program and the accompanying Old Testament and Ancien...

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.
